<div>Same arguments were made regarding helicopters at
many fields. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Fundamentally, if a multi rotor pilot comes to
the field (and they have), I'm going to welcome them
and teach them the rules of the field (which
includes the AMA safety code and how to react when
full scale flys by low on their way to the airfield
6 miles down the road, or the police helicopter
flies by very low doing speed control on hwy 101). </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It's our only hope: embrace and educate. The
alternative is shun and lose all opportunity to
discourage unsafe/irresponsible use. </div>

</div>
<div>If you educate one in responsible use, there's a
possibility they will spread that knowledge to
others in the community of multi rotor pilots. </div>

Yeah, I know that idiots are the problem.
Until we figure out how to fix stupid, we
should separate ourselves from the stuff that
those idiots are drawn to. There's no
particular reason for some clown from the
non-modeling public to come to an AMA flying
field. Nothing much to video, right? We'll
never, ever attract them to the AMA in any
kind of meaningful numbers and actually, God
help us if we did. Good flying fields are
hard enough to come by. Do you really want to
be competing for air time against dozens of
bozos who might show up just to fly a
multi-rotor? No thanks.

The only time there will be a
problem is with full-scale
incidents. You then have a
pilot saying he was at 600
feet and this "drone" shot
past him vertically and it
looked like the "drone" was
trying to hit him. Then the
only issue is who was flying
the model. That is relatively
simple at an AMA field given a
description of the model.<br>
<br>
A few incidents like that and
we will have a hard 400 foot
limit (or lower).<br>

Yes. AMA
members who
abide by the
AMA Safety
Code, which
permits
flights above
400 feet under
appropriate
circumstances,
and are
protected by
the Special
Rule for Model
Aircraft under
the 2012 FAA
Modernization
and Reform
Act. Checking
the box on the
federal
registration
webpage
signifies an
understanding
of the 400
foot
guideline.
This is an
important
safety
principle that
all UAS
operators need
to be aware
of, and is the
same guideline
established in
AC 91-57
published in
1981. However,
the placement
of this
guideline on
the FAA
website is
intended as an
educational
piece and more
specifically
intended for
those
operating
outside of
AMA’s safey
program. We
have been in
discussions
with the FAA
about this
point and the
agency has
indicted that
it will be
updating its
website in the
next week to
make clear
that this
altitude
guideline is
not intended
to supplant
the guidance
and safety
procedures
established in
AMA’s safety
program.</span><span
